Join King's Game Design Talent Pool!

At King, we're always interested in connecting with talented Game Designers who are passionate about creating engaging experiences for millions of players. Whether you're an Associate, Mid-level, Senior, Principal or Lead Game Designer, we'd love to hear from you. By joining our Talent Pool, you'll be considered for future opportunities across our game teams. If your background aligns with a role, a member of our Talent Acquisition team will get in touch to discuss it with you.

What we're typically looking for:

Our Game Designers work across a variety of areas including gameplay, systems, level design, Live Ops, economy design and feature design. While every role is different, we often look for designers with experience in:

• Designing engaging gameplay, features or systems for games, ideally within mobile, casual or free-to-play.
• Strong game design fundamentals, including player motivation, mechanics, systems, balancing and progression.
• Taking features from concept through implementation, using iteration, player feedback and data to refine the experience.
• Collaborating closely with Product, Engineering, UX, Art and other disciplines to deliver player-focused solutions.
• Communicating ideas clearly through design documentation, prototypes and presentations.
• Balancing creativity with analytical thinking to solve player and product challenges.

We welcome designers from a range of backgrounds and genres. While experience in mobile free-to-play is valuable, we're always keen to speak with people who are passionate about game design, enjoy solving complex design challenges, and are excited to learn and grow.
